Appendix Hop or why developers keep us for idiots?

And then it says to me: "Now you can use me!". Thank you, damn it, in less than three months.

The first time I was about Hop I mentioned in October, and my colleague Alexander MarfitsinRecently did a review on it. And everything is good, if not what bothered me at all times, while I was standing in the virtual queue to access the application - draft to talk about what it actually is.

Yes, I was initially convinced that the application is absolutely senseless. Now in the market and so full of different instant messengers, and mail clients, why do we need another one? Still fresh in my memory of the virtual queues, in which the developers have put us email client Mailbox. People proznal of steep new client who just turn everything representation of the interaction with the electronic correspondence and finally "give" us the order in the mailbox and stylish design coupled with simplicity use. "And bring coffee in bed." Only there is one condition: you have to download the application, thus reserving a spot. As soon as the turn comes - "sash swing open the gates of paradise" and you will be able to enjoy this wonderful development.

In fact, everything was much sadder. Though it is also looking at which way you look. The developers at the expense of users' popiaritsya "creating a stir, and" spat out "on a regular email client market, which took over the management of the foundation popular task-manager Clear. And, in fact, everything. Now aware of them, thousands of people and many of them even believe that using the best email application, as they stood in the queue, they are elected. Everything happened exactly as that is what counted creators: attracted attention, untwisted, and now it's small - to sell to someone and live happily ever after. And when the money runs out - to make another "start-up" with an innovative interface and capabilities, and again to banish all in one line.

Exactly in the same way and went Hop developers. Attracted attention with the help of line and gained fame. However, we must pay tribute, kept his word, and declared functions in the application are present and working. The question is: who needs them? Receive and e-mail client, or instant messenger for text messages, and not an application for video calls. Ponapihali of everything that can be managed in one application, but it will be possible to keep the public whose needs are changing very quickly?

For whom is this App? Absolutely, as well as Mailbox, - for teenagers. For business people, it is clearly not useful. It does not have Exchange support for corporate e-mail, chat and instead has long been used cross-platform WhatsApp, which for many has become no longer a means of personal communication, and to address the working tools of various issues.

My opinion: Hop - bullshit. I, as a consumer, I feel cheated. Of course, nobody forced not forced to download, install, wait. But, damn it, the developers, I'm counting on you! In a beautiful wrapper slipped nuts instead of candy. I do not want a nut, I want candy!
